Attracted By My Ex-wife

The fiery look in Sam's eyes made Anne feel uneasy all over. She averted her eyes awkwardly. Sam's love towards her was getting more obvious.

"Sam, thank you for what you did today."

After a long moment, Anne broke the silence first. The atmosphere between them made her uncomfortable.

"Why do you thank me? I didn't help you with anything."

Sam felt guilty over the thought that he failed to protect Anne and let Kevin take her away.

"No, you have helped me a lot these days. If you were not by my side, I really wouldn't know how to spend these days. You have been accompanying me and comforting me."

Anne was very grateful of the way Sam treated her. He even put aside his work to accompany her to America and look for her child.

"Anne. I just want you to know that no matter what happens, I will always be with you, take care of you, and protect you. I won't let you get hurt again."

The look in Sam's eyes became intense. After what happened last night, he had already figured it out. He wanted to be more than a friend towards Anne. He had already committed himself to protecting her well and being with her all the time.

"Sam, I really appreciate what you have done for me, so I have always considered you as the most important friend in my heart. Do you understand what I mean?"

Anne quickly clarified what she felt for Sam in the nicest way. She already expected what he was about to say next, so she tried to be clear as much as she could to him. She didn't want to lose their friendship by looking forward to something more than that.

Sam had wanted to tell Anne what he truly felt for her. When he heard her words, his face suddenly turned disappointed. He looked at her sadly.

"Anne, do you really just treat me as your friend in your heart? Nothing else?"

Sam's eyes were filled with pain when he looked into Anne's eyes. His tone was soft and gentle, as if he was afraid of frightening her. He had always been so good towards Anne.

Anne didn't know what to do when she saw the anxiety in his eyes. She didn't want to discuss such matter with him. She had always regarded him as her friend, nothing more, nothing less. In her mind, their friendship would just be ruined if they shared some intimacy with it.

"Sam, I will never let our friendship be ruined, so some things are better left unsaid. I hope you understand clearly the relationship between us. Nevertheless, you will always be the most important friend for me,"

Anne said every word with sincerity and lowered her head. She hoped that Sam would understand her.

Sam was broken into pieces at once. He looked at Anne and smiled bitterly. Although he had already thought that he might definitely be rejected by her when he spoke of his love, he still couldn't help but fantasize about her.

He felt so much pain in his heart. He had no choice but to accept the truth. To Anne, he would always be a friend, just a friend.
